Hello 
 
I have a web app with ui:repeat and h:dataTable tags. the repeat tag does not work while dataTable works. what did I do wrong in here. see code below 
 
My index.xhtml has the following contens: 
 
= Start ============================ 
 
 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" 
 "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> 
 
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" 
 xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets" 
 xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" 
 xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" 
 xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"> 
 
 
 <h1>Repeat Tag</h1> 
 <ul> 
 <ui:repeat var="color1" value="#{colorsBean.colors}"> 
 <li>#{color1}</li> 
 </ui:repeat> 
 </ul> 
 
 <hr/> 
 
 <h1>DataTable Tag</h1> 
 <ul> 
 <h:dataTable var="color2" value="#{colorsBean.colors}"> 
 <h:column> 
 <f:facet name="header"> 
 <h:outputText value="Color" /> 
 </f:facet> 
 <h:outputText value="#{color2}"/> 
 </h:column> 
 </h:dataTable> 
 </ul> 
</html> 
 
--> 
= End ============================ 
 
 
 
ColorsBean is as follows: 
 
== Start =========================== 
public class ColorsBean { 
 String []colors = new String[] {"White","Black","Freen","Blue","Red","Yellow","Cyan"}; 
 
 public String[] getColors() { 
 return colors; 
 } 
 
 public void setColors(String[] colors) { 
 this.colors = colors; 
 } 
} 
 
= End ============================ 
 
the libraries I have under WEB-INF/lib are: 
 - jsf-api.jar 
 - jsf-facelets-1.1.11.jar 
 - jsf-impl.jar 
 
============================== 
 
here is the page output: 
 
[b]Repeat Tag[/b] 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
[b]DataTable Tag[/b] 
 
Color

Black 
Freen 
Blue
